If you need a metaphor to prove your point- you have already lost an argument.

I just say that people struggle with using ChatGPT

If people struggle with product that is advertised as something that should help people talking to computers and get more productive with them - then its a failed product.

But LLMs are tools for imbeciles. If you can formulate your question correctly, you can just google it and get similar results from stackoverflow or reddit. LLMs searching the internal internet archive or use live google search anyway, but outputs results in slightly different style and sometimes glues answers together in seemingly cohesive manner, but at the same time leaving other context clues out of the picture - for example, doing search in google and visiting actual website with source info, you can gauge how credible it is by looking at answer upvotes, comments, date of the original answer, etc. LLMs strip that valuable information away and just provide you with castrated answer. Not to mention limited context window of any LLM, which causes funny hallucinations if you overstretch it. LLMs are solution in search of a problem, they cannot help dumb people, and they do not provide enough value to smart people.

Yeah, I was also under the impression that they will create proper search engine for regular users, the AI crap is cancer

To defeat the invaders we need two core things - will of the people and money. Corruption poisons both of those wells, so we have to do both reforms in the government and in the military. You don’t have to pick one, these processes are concurrent and don’t block each other.

Because rolling back anti corruption measures makes people feel like those 11 years of war and suffering were pointless, they feel betrayed, robbed of even a slight, but still real possibility of better future. Why do we have to go trough all of this shit if we’ll end up with Yanukovich 2.0 anyway?

The motivation is to basically delete two main independent anti corruption government agencies by giving total control of them to general prosecutor, completely concentrating power in Zelenskys hands. And those changes were announced and voted for in a SINGLE DAY. We are so fucked, oh my god.
